The Texas Penitentiary
Tells a Startling Story.

Public attention is directed to
|the report of the superintendent of
|the penitentiary covering the
years 1870 to 1880. In that re-
port the superintendent gives the
|habits of 1913 persons who had
|O8en incarcerated during the ten
Years, as follows: Strictly temper
|ate, 287; moderate drinkers, 992 /;
|s7asmodic drinkers, 1,043; admit
FED Incorporate, 5,19l. Only 4
per cent. sober men and SO per
cent. drinkers, made criminals by
intoxicating liquor.
Does crime cost the State less
low than during the years under
review? Let US see. From No
Tember l, 1884, to October 81, 1885,
there were 2,191 persons convicted
and sent to the penitenSiary.
Their cost to the State and coun-
ties IN hard cash was So, O11, 1888,
Or over one million dollars per an
mum. Besides this sum the cost
OF maintaining the penitentiary
was S956,547.04, a part of which,
however, was received from con-
tractors, who had hired the con-
VlCts from the State.

Canon WiIberfOrce ON Rum
The Distinguished English Church
man Declares for absolute and
Universal Prohibition.

New YORK, June ia large
audience gathered in Chickering
Hall this afternoon to greet Canon
Wiloerforce, of England, who was
announced to speak under the au-
spices of the National Temper
ance Society. Rev. T. Dewitt Tai
mage presided and many clergy
men of various denominations,
known in connection with the
temperance cause, had seats on the
platform.
In introducing the speaker DR..
Talmage said that the audience
was glad to welcome the Canon,
but not because he was the son of
Bishop Wilberforce, nor because he
was the grandson of William Will
berforce, the great English enamel
pator, but because he was as good
and strong as either.
The Canon spoke for an hour,
and awoke great enthusiasm.
Among the things he said we're:
"The noblest of enthusiasts is
the love of the LORD and the bas-
est the passion for drink. The
only thing that Christianity
wants now is Christians. There
are too many people with too
much religion to enjoy the world,
and too many with too much
worldliness to enjoy religion. l
feel that in speaking in New
York 1 am speaking to America,
and Americans are the great An
glo-Saxonizing machine of the
whole universe, and I wish to
warn you not to let the liquor
traffic control Americans as it
con trolls England.
"There is an aristocracy in this
country, but it is an aristocracy of
power, of character, of
beauty, and of grace. In England
we put our big brewers in the
House of Commons, instead of put
ting them in Jail as they do in
Maine. In Maine they lock up
the liquor before it gets into a
man, while in New York you
only lock it up after. There must
be no compromise-no high license
but absolute and universal prohi-
bition."

Intemperance is the greatest
tur8e that afflicts labor. 1t robs
the workiugman and his wife and
children of more money than any
strike or lockout, and it saps the

Heating OF Railroad Cars.

The terrible railroad accident in Ohio,
aud the coincident one in Massachusetts,
illustrating the great danger from fire in
collisions, should suffice to call the atten-
tion of legislators everywhere to
the need of compelling railroads to
provide efficient means of heating their
cars, which shall be free from such
awful dangers in case of accident to the
trains. 1t isalways the overturning of the
stoves that causes the burning. It is im-
possible to believe that the wit of man can
not conceive method of heating cars
which will avoid this dangeE. If the rail.
roads should be required by law to heat
their cars by means that would not burn
them, they would readily find a way to do
u. Hot air, water and steam are all at
snslr service, and a heating car, separated
rom the others, would do the work for the
: Train. ava WIG
IL Is SO much the habit Of railroads In
consult economy before safety to life that
devices for avoiding accidents ara of var
slow acceptance among railroad manaaers
1t II the very commonest thing to hear IL
s,id that there is no recompense to be
foand In life-saying inventions for rail-
road use aud this is particularly the case

The Csucus Resolve.

The Republican legislative caucus, after
boosting Quay, seemed determined to boost
as well prohibition and anti-discrimination
That may be said to lie surrounding Quay
with holy halo in his march on Washing

Quay was the author Of the temperance
plank in the Republican platform, and
seemed desirous of portrayinS him rs ned

ton. 1t is viewing him under new IS.
pect, but these are days in which 70 live
and learn. and it may be that even nail
road and whisky agent may suffer conver.
sion.
But il may also be that there has been nc
conversion either of Quay or Of his party
and that both are as devoted to whisky
| and railroad interests as they ever were
1t is easy for a party caucus to resolve; and
easy TO do nothing. Those who expect
great fruit from this Republican promis,
will be very likely to he disappointed
When the Prohibition amendment is sub
mitted to the people by the Republican leg
islature, and the railroads are chained b,
an act forbidding discrimination, and max
ing effective the provisions of the constitu
tion, our readers will be much older thal
they are now. For fourteen years it ha
been the duty Of Republican legislature
to enforce these provisions of the constitu
ton and they have shown an utter aversio
to the task; which aversion still remains t
disable them; though it is quite possible tina

United states, the railroad interests ma

THE seven elements in our national life to
which Statistician Atkinson ascribes the
great gains in material welfare achieved
during the last twenty years are as follows 4:
(l) The free purchase and large and increas-
ing individual ownership of land, with its
resulting stability. (2) The freedom of ex.
change between the states. (3) The COM
mon schools (i) Free suffrage, which as
sures protection TO the hum olest. 80 Local
government Tor local affairs. (6) General
laws enabling cities and towns to provide
water and sewerage without special acts, and
railways to be constructed TO prevent mono
poly in transportation. % That habit of
popular government which invariably In
duces the people OF each newly formed com.
munity to choose its moderator or mayor, its
selectmen, assessors Of taxes, school COM
mittee and constables, "and;thon, adopting
the principle of the English common law, at
once undertake their customary gsnful
occupations"

CORNELIUS VANDERBILT made a short
speech in New York before the railroad branch
OF the Young Mems Christian association on
Tuesday and, OF course was literally sp-
plauded. Mr.. William f. Dodge, who fol-
lowed him, referred to the young millionaire
In terms OF praise and especially commended
his liberality in offering 10 erect a handsome
building for the use of the railroad men Of
the New York Central. He said "Shortly
a stately structure will rise opposite this
Grand Central depot, the various apartments
ofwhich will be provided with Libraries, read
Ing rooms baths, gymnasiums, lecture
rooms, In fact with everything that could be
desired for the entertainment, innocent
amusement education and the nurture OF
Christian principles This munticent Gift,
worthy OF Christian, will he the property
of the railroad employees Of the New York
Central"
Mr.. Depew followed with the remark that
there was only one railroad and that in his
opinion was the New York Central the rest
were branches and after he had paid an elo.
quent tribute to Cornelius Vanderbilt and
his association the meeting was closed with
benediction. All this is just as 1t should
be for charitable liberality has not been
prominent trait OF character in most OF our
millionalres and should bo encouraged an

". W. Hsight, one OF Witrock's accom-

has furnished a written statement OF his con.

and his inability 10 obtain employment
forced him to devise some means whereby
he might provide his wife and child with the
necessaries OF life. To do this he planned
the robbery and approached Witrock with
the scheme. Witrock became enthusiastic
over 1t and thereafter took the affair into his
hands and he (Haight) heard nothing more
OF him until he read an account OF the rob.
berry in tho papera Soon after that Witrock
sent him $1,000 by Oscar Cook and sum.

rick gave him sl0,0 900 more.
He says 1t was he who forged Mr.. Damsel's
signature TO the pass which was presented to
Messenger Fotheringham and had the A dams
Express letter heads and envelopes printed.
Fotheringham, he asserts, Is absolutely inno-
cent OF every charge brought against him.
The convicted robbers will be sent to the
penitentiary. Witrock said that he stIpll-
lated with Plnkerton's detectives that they
must lift the mortgage on his mothers house
before he would restore any of the stolen
money. This he said they had promised 70
do and added that II was done when they
went out TO Leayenworth, and thus his chiel
